I don't know what's worse. Being informed about how much oil we seem to use each and every week on average, or confronted with the sobering thought that our country continues to be immoveable in digging its' collective heels into the Earth to extract all of the oil no matter what the cost in remaining determined to be stubborn and sacrificing human and so many other types of life forms.

From OPB's posted news article:

"Stocks (the nation's strategic oil stockpile) are now below what U.S. authorities recommend as the minimum of 270 million barrels -- roughly 14 days of domestic consumption -- to keep up with the nation's energy needs."
